    ~1.6 mins read
    The Chief of Army Staff, Lt. Gen. Tukur Buratai, has directed senior military personnel to declare their assets in compliance with the code of conduct for public officers.

    He stated that personnel entrusted with leadership responsibility must understand the importance of assets declaration and code of conduct.

    Declaring open, a two-day workshop on Compliance with Assets Declaration and Code of Conduct for Officers and Soldiers, facilitated by Go-Getters Consulting Ltd., in Abuja on Tuesday, the COAS said the Nigerian Army would partner with the Code of Conduct Bureau to ensure public morality and accountability in the conduct of its activities.

    Buratai noted that the workshop was important to the Army as it afforded the servicemen the opportunity to fulfil their obligations as public officers in line with the provision of the Fifth Schedule of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, 1999 (as amended).

    He said, The Nigerian Army under my leadership is desirous of maintaining the highest standard of accountability in the conduct of our activities, consistent with the requirements and behaviours of public officers which conform to the highest standard of probity, public morality, transparency and accountability.

    Opportunistic Infections

    Opportunistic Infections: Understanding the Threat and Mitigation Strategies

    In the intricate world of infectious diseases, opportunistic infections stand as a unique and often dangerous category. These infections exploit weakened immune systems, taking advantage of a body's vulnerability to cause severe illness. Often seen in individuals with compromised immune function, such as those living with HIV/AIDS, undergoing immunosuppressive therapy, or dealing with other medical conditions, opportunistic infections are a persistent concern in modern medicine.

    **I. What are Opportunistic Infections?**

    Opportunistic infections are caused by microorganisms that typically do not cause disease in people with healthy immune systems. However, when a person's immune defenses are compromised, these pathogens seize the opportunity to invade and multiply within the body, leading to infections that can be severe, recurrent, and difficult to treat. Common examples of microorganisms responsible for opportunistic infections include bacteria, viruses, fungi, and protozoa.

    **II. Factors Predisposing to Opportunistic Infections**

    Several factors render individuals more susceptible to opportunistic infections:

    1. **Immunodeficiency:** The primary factor is a weakened immune system. This can result from medical conditions such as HIV/AIDS, congenital immune deficiencies, or treatments like chemotherapy and immunosuppressive drugs used in organ transplantation.

    2. **Age:** The very young and the elderly are more vulnerable due to developing or declining immune systems, respectively.

    3. **Chronic Diseases:** Conditions such as diabetes, cancer, and autoimmune disorders can weaken the immune system and create a conducive environment for opportunistic infections.

    4. **Malnutrition:** Poor nutrition compromises the body's ability to mount an effective immune response, making individuals susceptible to infections.

    5. **Environmental Factors:** Exposure to certain environments or substances can increase susceptibility. For example, healthcare workers are at risk due to frequent exposure to infectious agents.

    **III. Common Opportunistic Infections**

    1. **Pneumocystis jirovecii:** Often seen in individuals with HIV/AIDS, this fungus causes Pneumocystis pneumonia, a life-threatening lung infection.

    2. **Cytomegalovirus (CMV):** This herpesvirus can cause severe illness in immunocompromised individuals, affecting the eyes, digestive system, and other organs.

    3. **Candidiasis:** Candida species can cause infections in the mouth, throat, and genital area. In severe cases, it can spread throughout the body.

    4. **Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC):** This bacterial infection affects people with weakened immune systems, leading to fever, weight loss, and fatigue.

    5. **Toxoplasmosis:** Caused by the parasite Toxoplasma gondii, this infection can affect the brain and other organs.

    **IV. Diagnosis and Treatment**

    Timely and accurate diagnosis is crucial for effectively managing opportunistic infections. Diagnostic methods vary depending on the type of infection but often involve laboratory tests to identify the causative microorganism. Treatment approaches may involve antimicrobial medications, antiviral drugs, and in some cases, combinations of therapies. Additionally, efforts to address underlying immunodeficiency, such as using antiretroviral therapy for HIV-infected individuals, are essential components of managing opportunistic infections.

    **V. Preventive Strategies**

    Preventing opportunistic infections involves a multi-faceted approach:

    1. **Immunization:** Vaccines can help prevent infections such as influenza, pneumococcal disease, and hepatitis that can be particularly severe in immunocompromised individuals.

    2. **Hygiene and Infection Control:** Regular handwashing and proper hygiene practices can minimize the risk of infection.

    3. **Antiretroviral Therapy (ART):** For people living with HIV, ART helps restore immune function and reduce the risk of opportunistic infections.

    4. **Prophylactic Medications:** In some cases, individuals with compromised immunity are prescribed prophylactic antimicrobial medications to prevent specific infections.

    5. **Isolation Precautions:** Hospitalized individuals with weakened immune systems may be placed in isolation to reduce exposure to infectious agents.

    **VI. The Evolving Landscape**

    Advancements in medical science and technology continue to impact the landscape of opportunistic infections. Antiretroviral therapy has revolutionized the treatment and prevention of opportunistic infections in HIV/AIDS patients. However, emerging infections and the rise of antibiotic-resistant microorganisms pose new challenges.

    **VII. Conclusion**

    Opportunistic infections remain a significant concern for individuals with weakened immune systems. The interplay between medical conditions, immunodeficiency, and microbial agents underscores the complex nature of these infections. Through robust prevention strategies, early diagnosis, and targeted treatments, medical professionals strive to mitigate the impact of opportunistic infections, enhancing the quality of life for those at risk. As medical research advances, it is hoped that even more effective strategies will be developed to address this persistent threat.
